    Default FAILED 06.06.06: God for Civitates (Patron Grimsta)

    God

    He is as pure as the driven snow with no usernotes.

    I know sometimes my posts aren't very long, but quality over quantity eh?

    I am also incredibly fed up with having to keep writing these paragraphs. And I want that civitate banner.


    Also, Apparently I caught Garb's eye, and if he thinks I'm good enough then who can argue??

Having reached a postcount that no non-civ should have to bear and indeed would make the Grim Squeaker blush with shame I feel that his time to wear that oh so grooveh Civ badge and Red Name is upon him.


    Rejoice! for now is the time of God!!

    He didnt even make the effort to write a proper Para and I'm not impressed. No.

    And I want that civitate banner.
    wtf
    Well, if I, Belisarius, the Black Prince, and you all agree on something, I really don't think there can be any further discussion.

    I've got to say no, not based on the paragraph, but on the posting style which is reflected really rather well int he paragraph... too much spam...

    My vote is abstain. The presentation is bad... Grimsta probably told him how easy things are. I think a month reflection would help things a bit....

    Being one of the older members of this process, I usually dont even bother to read the paragraph, but based on the posts in this thread I read it and still really dont care.

    This is even exaptable to me:

    I want to be civitates because I post good so I should be made one.
    Abstained by the way. Nothing stands out but he is popular. I will further review later to see if he is worth it.

    No. I am not convinced. On that basis it has to be that way.

    This is kind of what i mean when i ramble on about both deserving and wanting it for the right reasons.

    He does contribute a fair bit, i like his posts and his threads are usually ok/good (a lot of one liners it must be said), but he shot himself in the foot with this paragraph, it ruins his case.. if he came back next month with a well thought out paragraph and some more good debates id perhaps have voted yes.

    I'm going to say no for the same reasons listed. There is no substance to his posts, though I think he is obviously a nice person and likeable.

    If we were voting for civitates based on whether we like someone he would get a vote but we aren't.
